sharing link so people can add photos

Hello,

 

I am trying to share the link with people who attended our wedding so that they can add their photos. I do not have all email addresses, how would I get a link to be able to text/ whatsapp this to friends and family?

 

Many thanks,

Sinead

  • Hi there sineaddonlon - thanks for using Dropbox and welcome to the Community!

     

    While the best way to achieve this would be through a shared folder, in this case, since you don't know the email addresses of your collaborators, you can create a file request for others to upload their files back to your account and share a link to the folder you'd be storing your file requests via a shared link with view only rights from there. 

     

    I hope this helps!
